Infinitely Content Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Extremely good stats from a number 10, there'll not be many with better this season. I think that role is his and should be - although Rafa is famously ruthless so we'll have to see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Superb game today, he absolutely destroyed Chelsea which is quite the way to end your season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_NUFC Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 I know some will think I'm taking this too far with what I'm about to say but.. This guy is a club legend in the making. When he does leave, I will think highly of him purely because despite being limited, he has made the most out of what his game is as much as he could. Considering what we paid for him, he has paid that back again and again.. as frustrating as he can be. Love you Ayo This. Love this kid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiston Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 The shit he has taken from fans this season is insane, he's been one of our better players, especially since February. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John P Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 He had a great end to last season as well if I remember. Obviously only performs when it's warm, typical foreigner tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 There’s no way #10 is second priority over summer after a striker - Perez is crucial to how we play football, and he’s coming through in a big way lately. He’s starting next season, here’s hoping he continues onwards and upwards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Best finisher at the club, play him further forward next season. As the main striker in our current system? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinitely Content Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I think we should keep him at number 10 tbh. 10 goals could be built on with a better striker to link up with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Don't think hes an unsung hero. He has gotten the praise he deserves. I do see why he gets some flak because when we aren't playing well and don't have any end product, he really stinks up the place with his weak dribbling, balance and passing.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Wouldn't 10 goals from a #10 make him one of the highest scoring players in that position? Not many people who aren't dedicated forwards get more than that. Cue someone with a list of goalscorers showing that's bollocks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few wingers have more such as Sterling & Mahrez. Pretty good company for Perez like. All from open play too which counts for a lot imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 There's a fair few non-strikers who got more than his 8 PL goals. Sanchez has scored 1 more goal and has 1 more assist than Perez. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benwell Lad Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Despite his infuriating moments he's a defence opener and can turn a match in a moment of brilliance. If we're looking for a significant upgrade in that position it's going to cost a lot of money. The new player would also have to fit in with the Benitez approach, something Ayoze so obviously already does. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hakka Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Perez has gone from needing replacing to being a valued squad member for me. His goals have been vital, he just needs genuine competition for a starting place. He will get better and it will be useful to have a genuine number 10 to rotate him with.

xLiaaamx Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Aye, striker first for obvious reasons, but as it stands Ayoze has to play 38 games right now. Need to get another one in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Overheard walking out of Wembley last week “Ah well as for Perez. He needs the death penalty! A few goals of late, but he’s still awful.” I’m not his biggest fan, he flatters to deceive and I actually think with his talent, should contribute more. All that said, I thought the death penalty seemed a bit harsh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
